Wilson Fisk also features heavily in the arc, even discovering Daredevil's true identity - a twist foreshadowed in Daredevil's second season, as a jailed Fisk re-examined the cut that an earlier clash with Murdock had left on his lip, seemingly remembered the same damage being inflicted upon him by Daredevil when he was arrested.

More spoilerific details on the original Born Again - and how it might lead to a Jessica Jones crossover - can be found here.

Daredevil season 3 release date: When it's coming to Netflix?

On July 22, 2016 – over four months since season two dropped – Marvel's head of TV Jeph Loeb officially announced at San Diego Comic-Con 2016 that Daredevil would return.

Though fans initially expected new episodes to land next year, Netflix boss Ted Sarandos later urged caution...

Marvel and Netflix have a full slate and with Iron Fist and team-up series The Defendersboth dropping in 2017, it's looking like we'll have to wait till at least 2018 for more Daredevil. Ditto second seasons of Jessica Jones and Luke Cage.

Daredevil season 3 trailer: Is there a first look?

The announcement of a third season came with this first-look teaser. It gives away precious little, other than that Daredevil is still patrolling the streets of Hell's Kitchen... and his mood hasn't mellowed much.

Then there's Rosario Dawson's helper of heroes Claire Temple, who's swiftly becoming the Netflix answer to Samuel L Jackson's Nick Fury. She'll next be seen in season two of Luke Cage (and might pop up in the next Jessica Jones, too) but a reunion with Matt Murdock could also be on the cards.

The fate of Frank Castle is less certain – with Jon Bernthal's vigilante having used Daredevil as a launchpad for his own Netflix series, it's unclear if he'll also return to the mothership in 2018.

Daredevil season 3 villains: Is Bullseye coming?

Having tackled The Kingpin and The Punisher, surely DD's perennial nemesis Bullseye is next on the list for showrunners Doug Petrie and Marco Ramirez?

First introduced to comics in 1976, Bullseye is a hitman with uncanny aim and is arguably Matt Murdock's most persistent and formidable foe.

Way back in April 2015, shortly after the launch of Daredevil's first season, Charlie Cox told Digital Spy: "At some point, I presume we've got to have Bullseye – I feel like he has to make an appearance."

Cox reiterated his desire to face off with Bullseye a year later, saying: "I can't imagine doing a run of Daredevil where Bullseye doesn't show up at some point.

"I just think there's such an interesting, rich character there, and also – of course – the history that Bullseye has with Karen Page is an interesting dynamic."

Will Charlie's wish be granted? Time will tell...

SPOILER ALERT!!! In the original comics, it was Bullseye – rather than Nobu – who executed Elektra, while he also later murdered Matt's beloved Karen. The massive dick.

Daredevil movie: Will he join Marvel's Cinematic Universe?

The topic of crossover between Marvel's big-screen efforts and their small-screen siblings can sometimes be a contentious issue...

But earlier this year, Marvel producer Nate Moore stated that it was absolutely possible for Daredevil to make the leap. "We love that idea," he enthused.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, Charlie Cox is also on board – and in April 2016, the actor confirmed that his contract does include a clause for Marvel's films.

"When I signed the contract for the show, I signed multiple years for Daredevil and, of course, The Defenders – and in that package there was the opportunity to be involved in the movies," he revealed.

"It would be great if that was to happen – it'd be wonderful. Who wouldn't want to be in the biggest grossing movie of all time?"
